Neoregelia dactyloflammans

Neoregelia dactyloflammans is a rarely recorded bromeliad from southeastern Brazil, known from only a couple of wild records near the Bahia and Minas Gerais border. Treat it like other Atlantic-forest Neoregelia: bright filtered light for good leaf color, warm days, a filled central cup and humid but moving air.
